Can tell before note one from that faux forgotten realms cover art I was going to love this I was right. Cheers ma subscription to your channel is by far one of my most valued
i just took a scan through the track names and theres a lot of references as well: moon sphere of the dancing court refers to a very popular place in waterdeep where people come to dance near a magical construct of the same name kelthas reffers to an obscure necromancer bandit and dragonspear is a dungeon im pretty sure dinomace is a refference to the saurials or dragonbait but im not aquainted enough with either to be sure
@@AlxanderVII And you can see the Tears of Selune following the moon in the album art ^~^ A Day's March through the Ancient Elven Forest is probably a reference to Cormanthyr.
@@Taricus Wow! I am shocked anyone picked up on the Tears! We talked about it being another one of those details only we would ever probably appreciate! Close on the Ancient Elven Forest! This was in reference to the Ardeep on our way up to the House of Stone.
My.god. I just randomly thought of the word "dungeon synthe" and searched on RU-vid. The music is amazing and I felt real emotions from here. Beautiful art here.
This is something special. Amazing dungeon synth with beautiful cover art with that really captures the feeling of adventure and exploration into an unknown realm.
Barely made it to a minute with the first song and I bought the whole album because of how evident the beauty and talent this album portrays. I am glad I did because it is gems like these that reminds me why I love and support this genre
(I'm half of Sombre) maybe we will, and we'll throw this track we released on a halloween comp with it :-) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-A1nEn0r1aFI.html
There's something about this cover art, I don't know what it is, but I really like it. It feels like good fantasy is the closest I can say to pinpointing it. Like, decent fantasy; true fantasy from 70s/80s/90s before it became cool. I like it.
probably because it uses the same font and style from the published Dungeons and Dragons adventure books in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting from way back when
@@iainhaukka6553 I know the name is in the style of Forgotten Realms, but it is more than that. It's something about the unusual composition. Newer fantasy paintings don't have the same feeling to me as older ones. This one feels unique to me.
@@kaykek7174 I know. I hate to say it but, I think the 'pasty' look of digital artwork and some sort of lack of vibrancy, is also part of it. Traditional paints seem to have a particular quality to them on paper or canvas that seems to hold its value for the viewer (or for me at least) much longer than newer arts done digitally. It really has a different quality to me than digital does.
@@Roset03 This is an original painting, done intentionally in an old school fantasy style on canvas, which may have something to do with it :) A lot of the newer styles are purely digital
We were working with a new local label on a vinyl release but they’ve decided to not move forward with the label. So we are currently open to the idea of Kickstarter, hadn’t thought of it. Cheers!
@@jessecappel If anyone approaches us about releasing it on cd we will definitely consider it but from what we’ve noticed it seems like the majority of DS listeners seem to not purchase CDs so it’s not something we are looking to do on our own.
Nest is hugely inspirational to Naginah. That’s the project that got me discover my love for the kantele which eventually lead to this band. We did a cover of the track Land Behind the Mist on ‘Dungeon Synth Cult Compilations IV’.
I love the variety within Dungeon Synth. After turning off al album with more of the hammered dulcimer ren faire vibe -which is fantastic just not my mood- this is hitting the sweet spot
The vintage book cover look of an old paperback Forgotten Realms novel or adventure module adds great to the experience. Throws me back to my early adventuring days with my first AD&D-Group back in the mid 90ies. Excellent!
Time-space condundrum is ethereal yet so dark, otherworldly yet so grounded, lively yet so melancholy. Im still trying to pick my jaw up from the floor.
